The List for Tuesday, November 11th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Oh look… the Grammy nominations are out, which means country fans are already rage-scrolling. Miranda Lambert somehow got shoved into “Contemporary” instead of “Traditional,” so I guess steel guitars are now considered EDM. And Morgan Wallen, Luke Combs, AND Megan Moroney all got totally ignored. Meanwhile, a totally FAKE, A.I. country act called Breaking Rust hit #1 with “Walk the Walk.” Two million monthly Spotify listeners… for a robot band. So yes, your toaster may be the next country star. Yee-haw, Skynet.

Hollywood’s ageless action doll Tom Cruise is reportedly back on the dating market after things fizzled with Ana de Armas. Word is he’s looking for a setup and has laser-locked onto Charlize Theron. He wants to “collaborate,” which is celebrity-speak for “Let’s flirt on set and see what happens.” Charlize once called for Tom to join Fast & Furious and now his friends are telling him to go for it. Scientology meets Fast & Furious? I’d watch that more than the last three sequels.

Kim Kardashian is calling out her family psychics for promising she’d pass the bar exam. She says they’re “pathological liars,” which is rich coming from a family built on filters and plot twists. After six years of studying and multiple tries, she still didn’t pass… and now she’s dragging the tarot ladies on TikTok. Somewhere there’s a crystal in Calabasas rolling its eyes…..

Country legend Vince Gill is getting the Willie Nelson Lifetime Achievement Award at this year’s CMAs. Well deserved the man’s been making music longer than most of us have been alive. The CMAs air November 19th at 8pm on ABC, so get ready for the classy part of the show before Jelly Roll shows up with a fog machine and a tattoo budget bigger than Iowa.

The List for Thursday, March 19th 2026

Welcome to The List…

Hollywood’s biggest fear is officially here. Dead actors… still booking roles. A new movie is using A.I. to bring Val Kilmer back. Yeah. From the grave… straight to the premiere. The director says Val wanted this. His family signed off too. Which is great… until your Netflix suggestions start haunting you. Somewhere an Oscar just felt uncomfortable.

-----

Tom Brady says he wears a disguise to his kids’ games. Not kidding. Hoodie. Hat. Full undercover quarterback mode. Apparently the kids don’t want attention on them because… you know… their dad is TOM BRADY. Imagine trying to sneak into a gym when you’re built like a superhero statue. Sir… we still know it’s you.

-----

Rumor is Keith Urban might be going through a midlife crisis after the split. Sources say he wants to live the single life again. Totally different person now. Which honestly just sounds like every guy who suddenly discovers energy drinks and fitted jeans. Next step is obvious. Corvette. New Balance. Bluetooth headset.

-----

Kenny Chesney just launched his own record label. Big move. Real boss energy. It’s named after his boat… because of course it is. And the first artist he signed…drumroll… Kenny Chesney. Man skipped the middleman and hired himself. HR meeting must be real smooth.
